- Abstract:
- ... Penicillium digitatum is the main pathogen which causes postharvest decays in lemons, and the use of synthetic fungicides is the principal way of controlling these postharvest infections. In our previous work, identifying biological alternatives to the use of fungicides, a killer strain of Clavispora lusitaniae 146, which exhibited highly protective activity against green mold on lemons, was isola ...

- Abstract:
- ... Herbaceous peony (Paeonia lactiflora Pall.) is one of the most important cut flowers worldwide, but the short natural florescence seriously affects its industrial development. In this study, the cut peony ‘Yang Fei Chu Yu’ was preserved in dry storage (DS) and wet storage (WS), respectively, at 0–4 °C. We set two treatments of short- and long-term storage (S-tS, 3 d; L-tS, 23 d). We assessed the p ...

- Abstract:
- ... A 3D scanner was used to reverse engineer a model to assess impact bruising of fresh Goji (Lycium barbarum L.) fruit. Based on the results of physical compression tests, an elastic-plastic model was selected as the material mechanics model for the fruit. A finite element method explicit dynamics simulation was performed to predict impact bruising using Abaqus software. Simulation results showed th ...

- Abstract:
- ... The mediation of stimulation of chilling tolerance and defense response by guanosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) in response to gibberellic acid (GA3) treatment in peach fruit was explored. The fruit were treated with exogenous GA3 and LY83583 (cGMP inhibitor). It turned out that exogenous GA3 treatment mitigated chilling injury (CI) in postharvest peach fruit. Further, GA3 treatment enhance ...
